It's pretty good. Decent amount of content being added and small tweaks by developers who pay attention. If you are hurting for a platoformer roguelike this is a snappy one that will keep you entertained for a while. Suffers from a bit of Isaac-syndrome where getting a few very good items early on can snowball you through the entire run.
Devs did a great job of letting the player adjust difficulty through different modes of play. Enemy and boss design definitely needs some work though.
Overall it is entertaining and a solid buy if the genres sound like something you would like.
Never played any other Mega Man games so I can't speak to the nostalgia factor.

Fast paced, fun never stops. Always manages to keep you on your toes while being, for the most part, very unstressful. Huge amount of unlocks (early and late game) that keep you coming back for more no matter what. Insane amount of replayability if you like roguelikes. A solid game with developers who care about their game. More or less a flawless game.
Now, the only gripe (and the reason I say add less alongside more), is that there is no melee weapon. I think the game would be greatly improved by the use of a sword (even as a 4th mana/weapon type). Being aggressive and in the enemies face rarely pays off, nor is it supposed to. But what if that was different? What if we redefined what exactly the Ziggurat is? What if we added swords?
I have emailed the devs about this, and they still have not added into the game.
